And someone else said, that it was a song. I'm sure there are lots of song about the moon, the one I'm after is to the tune in Vol2 of the Lewes Favourites |

Stewart sang one by that name that starts out "I come from the land of the long grass and gorse" and features a chorus with "You brought me down gently, you brought me down clean. You fed me the summer, you fed me your dreams." Might that be it? |
